The Floridant/10314180

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Floridant -- Saint‑Tropez, France — Under the glittering sky of the French Riviera, the prestigious Summer Gala by Gala One 2025 at the exclusive Golf Club Saint‑Tropez brought together the worlds of art, culture, philanthropy, and entertainment for one of the season's most anticipated charity events.

Renowned artist, environmental activist, and philanthropist Natalia Kapchuk contributed her striking sculptural work "Glacial Iridescent" (2022) from the internationally acclaimed series The Lost Planet to the evening's high-profile charity auction.

Lot #13 "Glacial Iridescent" opened at €20,000 and achieved an outstanding hammer price of €50,000 after spirited bidding from international collectors. The work captured the attention of Charles Riva — influential French‑Italian post‑war and contemporary art advisor, dealer, and collector — who described it as his favorite piece of the auction.

Artwork with a Mission

Kapchuk's sculpture delivers a powerful visual commentary on environmental degradation in polar regions. Merging sculptural form with shimmering iridescent textures, Glacial Iridescent evokes the fragile beauty of melting Arctic ice

— a stark reminder of the urgency to preserve endangered ecosystems. Speaking on the role of art in ecological advocacy, Kapchuk stated:

"Contemporary art objects can not only highlight specific issues through visualization and immersive effects but also inspire individuals to take positive actions, such as in the cause of nature protection. They have the power to inspire, motivate, and drive positive change."
